COMMUNICATIONS OFFICE The Office of Communications is responsible for media relations, public relations, the diocesan newspaper, New Earth, TV Mass, and supervision of this website. Members of the news media frequently contact the diocese regarding Catholic teachings on a variety of issues. We recognize the importance of sharing the Catholic message and the value of doing so through the secular media; therefore, we are committed to being accessible to news reporters for television, radio, newspaper and magazine interviews. Reporters should contact the Office of Communications at (701) 356-7958. If you call the Office of Communications after office hours, you will be directed to an alternate phone number.
